I actually read all the posts you directed me to.
But apparently missed the part of the FAQ that explictly warns that
using disable-output-escaping="yes" is really a non-portable
hack that is only to be used as a last resort.
There are many contexts were an XSLT engine is allowed to (and will)
ignore d-o-e, in which case your output will render as & n b s p ;
rather than as a space.
If you are producing html then most xslt systems if using the html
output method will output character 160 as nbsp anyway, so I do wonder
why you were forcing the xml output method, as your output appears
destined for an html browser.
